Great quiz, but you need to accept "…_ _ _ _ O _ E _ O R E _ _ _ E" without the ellipses.

@MRL. Sorry! I think I fixed it.

Led Zeppelin II also fits the clue and is arguably more correct, since the name of the album isn't ACTUALLY Led Zeppelin IV...

@floydpink. Actually that is the name of the album. And the other album didn't sell over 20 million albums.

Regardless, you got a little carried away with the album name--that "IN" shouldn't be there. :-)

"After the lukewarm, if not confused and sometimes dismissive, critical reaction Led Zeppelin III had received in late 1970, Page decided that the next Led Zeppelin album would not have a title..." But hey, what would the lead guitarist of the band know?

The official title of the 4th Led Zeppelin album is the 4 symbols but they are a pain to try to type. It is commonly referred to as IV, but it is not an official title.

Great idea and great quiz. You've got a pretty high rating there. Good job.

Odd - I'm being credited with answers I didn't get right, but some that I got are marked wrong?

Nice quiz. Tried EAGLES for Eminem until I looked at the associated album

EAGLES would also have been show as E _ _ L E S.

@DerekH: Probably my fault. The Led Zep album was split over 2 line and I was trying to get the other rows to line up again. Should be fixed now.

@Rockgolf, I know. It was a brief senior moment.

Great concept! The AC/DC album needs spaces in it though, as does Mariah Carey's.

@mat Sorry about that, someone else was editing my quiz and messed up a few of the entries.

I only missed one artist completely. Turns out not only do I own the LP on vinyl... I listened to it YESTERDAY! :(

Unless there's a reason I didn't see, you should accept "19" for the album by _ _ ELE in addition to the correct answer. It's not difficult to figure out but there's no reason the other should be excluded. Great quiz.

@_Pedantic_ 21 is one of the best-selling albums of all time selling 22 millions copies so far. 19 barely sold 6.5 million copies. That's why it doesn't accept 19.

Great quiz. As a side point...there was one answer that I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't take, then after looking at it for entirely too long, I discovered I had made a slight typo. However, Gnus N Roses sounds like a band that SHOULD sell 20 million albums, in a just world.
